Using Java Script and multiple audio files playing simultaneously, wrong audio file unmuted when reloading page

the order of the audios in the dom tree is not fixed
it can be different at every start
test with firefox, first start

=> different order

idea: identify the filenames of the audio
var filename1 = audioElement1.src.split("/").slice(-1)
var filename2 = audioElement2.src.split("/").slice(-1)
var filename3 = audioElement3.src.split("/").slice(-1)
var filename4 = audioElement4.src.split("/").slice(-1)
so you can use the filenames to find the correct audio

Great suggestion to use the file name. Could not get ID to work but hopefully your suggestion will do the trick.
I'll be back.
